Roseville Citizens League (RCL) Intersection Requests Summary; Rice Street Noise Variance Public Hearing Notice; and Twin Lakes Noise Variance Public Hearing Notice. City Engineer Debra Bloom briefly reviewed the Contract B Cleveland service drive from Lincoln to the Snelling Drive north of Byerly's between Lydia and County Road C and at Cleveland off 36 and B-2 frontage road; and completion of a shared project administered by the City of St. Anthony bordering the west side of Roseville on Highcrest south of County Road B. Member Vanderwall noted two road closures around McCarron's Lake over the last week, with no advance notice given to the School District for adjusting their transportation routes, as he had previously requested. Ms. Bloom apologized for this omission and advised that she would personally remind the Street Maintenance Supervisor of the need to provide advance notice to the School District. Discussion of other construction projects including reconstruction of the south OVAL parking lot; additional follow-up pending by staff from recommendations at the June PWET Commission meeting related to RCL intersection concerns and noting that the there were two (2) driveways close to the intersection of County Road B and Lexington for discussion with the property owner (Intersection #12); and corrections at problem intersections in conjunction with future construction projects by the City or other agencies. Mr. Schwartz advised that once corrections had been made to the meeting minutes and the staff-developed intersection chart for Intersection #10 as previously noted, staff would forward both to RCL Chair Roger Toogood along with a cover memorandum. Chair DeBenedet requested that staff provide a copy of those materials to Ramsey County as well to alert them to Roseville community discussions that may impact their future construction projects. Further discussion ensued related to written communication materials in the packet for various construction projects, including the pending public hearings for variances to extend work hours at the Rice Street Corridor and Highway 36, as well as the Twin Lakes -Phase II project. Ms. Bloom noted that on the Rice Street project, Lunda Construction, the contractor was requesting working dual shifts to facilitate a quicker construction schedule, and revised completion of roadwork north of Highway 36 this year, rather than the proposed two-phase approach. Ms. Bloom noted that the original phased project anticipated completion of the east side in 2010 and the west side in 2011, with the bridge remaining open for the majority of that time with one lane; Page 2 of 11
